Sets the profile to use for your camera.
Profile
ACR [version]
• These profiles are compatible with older versions of Camera Raw and Lightroom. The version
corresponds to the version of Camera Raw in which the profile first appeared. Choose an ACR profile if you want
consistent behavior with legacy photos.
•
These profiles significantly improve color rendering, especially in warm tones such as reds,
Adobe Standard
yellows, and oranges, from earlier Adobe camera profiles. The Profile pop-up menu displays only one Adobe Standard
profile for your camera.
•
These profiles attempt to match the camera manufacturer's color appearance under specific
Camera Matching
settings. Use a Camera Matching profile if you prefer the color rendering offered by your camera manufacturer's
software. Camera Matching profiles include the prefix Camera in the profile name.

increases saturation.
